Your excellency, we don't see many New Zealanders in this country, except for Mr. Hillary, of course, who climbed Everest. But I wonder if you'd tell us how you New Zealanders feel about us over here.

Munro
Well, you know, we like you. We're associated with you in Korea, and in proportion to our population we rank third to you. We had three hundred thousand Americans through New Zealand during the last war, and they liked us so much that thousands of them married our girls, and your girls are happy--our girls are happy with you today. So we like your Americans, I can assure you.
